Shep began his DJ career in the late 80's at Bensons Wine Bar, Essex, England. His Sunday night residence soon became so popular they moved him to a Friday Night slot "it was great because everyone was into rave in the late 80's and there was me playing rare groove & jazz, and the kid's were loving it."
It was in the early 90's that Shep got in to radio via Friends FM, a pirate radio station in Leyton, East London, working alongside Soul 24-7's Alan Jay. Shep soon moved on after hooking up with the Stomp FM boys who had just stopped broadcasting to apply for a legal licence "we did our first legal broadcast during a four week RSL (Restricted Service Licence) from a porta-cabin in a pub car park. I was DJing with Soul Scene legends like Froggy, Jasper The Vinyl Junkie and Kev Hill,Chris Hill, to name a few. It was without doubt one of the best times of my life."Shep has been working in radio for over fifteen years.Shep is also part of Lacy Lady team working with Chris Hill, Bigger & Ginger Tony, making the 2nd room at the Lacy very popular a longside GT., .He has also made several guests spots at the' Caister Soul Weekender' Shep was a regular presenter on the live TV shows at Southport Dance Weekender.
In 1998, Active FM (consisting of some of the former Stomp FM boys) were finally awarded a full licence to broadcast to East London & Essex. The name changed to Soul City 107.5 FM in 2002 and Shep presented a weekend show called GLOBALSOUL up until March 2003.Shep's GLOBALSOUL radio show, which had it's first broadcast in 88 on Friends fm, has also been heard on, Soul24-7 and, also on Starpoint radio.
You can catch Shep along side GT on the last FRIDAY of the month at RUSSELLS, High St, Wanstead, if your into that Jazzy Souful Uplifting Groove.
